Grid

The compact grid of unit frames lets you select a group member quickly, while keeping a good overview of the whole group. It shows as much information as possible without overloading you. It allows you to customize what information you see, and how you see it. It works in both party and raid groups, and supports pets and vehicles.

Want more features? The Grid core tries to include only features which are generally useful for all classes and roles, but makes it easy to add new features with a simple plugin API for developers. Over 75 third-party plugins are already available!

Language Support

Grid is compatible with all World of Warcraft localizations. It is currently translated into English, Deutsch, Español, Français, Italiano, Português, Русский, 한국어, 简体中文, and 繁體中文.

To add or update translations for any language, enter them on the WowAce project page. New and updated translations will be automatically included in the next version of Grid!

HINT:The WowAce interface for adding translations is quite cumbersome. To make the process easier, you can use the Export function on WowAce, copy the exported data into your text editor, fill in your translations, and then paste them back into WowAce using the Import function.

Grid was originally conceived and written by Maia and Pastamancer in late 2006. Phanx has been the primary developer since late 2009. Jerry wrote the original pet support code. Mikk designed the icon. jlam added some advanced options for auras. Greltok has helped a lot with bugfixing. Finally, lots of people have contributed translations!

I have been using GRID since WLK, it's the time finally giving it up. I can't get a healing or damage absorbing bar indicator on health bar which is very common in games now. I tried GRID2, and found it much superior than GRID now which is opposite back when I tried GRID2 first time. So goodbye GRID, I'm using GRID2 now.

Hey there Phanx. I have been an avid user of Grid, for years now. I have one suggestion, in hopes it will be an option. Is there any way you could add the option to activate health percentages? Some people feel it is unnecessary, but I would love to have that feature to make it easier to quick glance at other party or raid members' health while healing. Thank you in advance!

Attn: holy paladins, holy priests -- Is range checking still essentially broken in 7.1, or did Blizzard realize that Beacon of Light and Prayer of Mending aren't heals whose range you care about, and revert the range check to pre-7.0 behavior? If it's still broken I'll finish up the spell-based range checking this weekend.

If you have any additional information to add, please post a comment on the ticket. Otherwise, please just be patient, and don't clutter up the comments sections with duplicate error reports and "me too" posts. I am aware of the issue and will fix it as soon as I can, but I am currently at work, and will not be able to start looking into the issue until later tonight.

Ideally this should be fixed on Blizzard's end, but I'm currently working on a workaround that will use specific spells to check range, rather than the actual "is this unit in range" function which is currently (effectively) broken for some classes. I'll try to have a beta release ready sometime this week.

I've actually always thought it would be nice if we could set custom conditions and indicators for range, similar to what we can do with debuffs. i.e. if range<40 frame normal, if >40 fade out, if <10 red outline, etc.

There are no longer options for that. It should be automatic. You should not see groups 5-8 in a mythic raid group. (But if you are outdoors, and not in a raid instance, you will still see everyone, even if the raid difficulty is set to mythic, since that setting doesn't affect world raid content.)

If you are inside an instance with the raid difficulty set to mythic and are still seeing players in groups 5-8, please:

2. Open a bug ticket. Include a screenshot (or multiple screenshots) showing Grid, the Grid layout settings panel (specifically, which layout you have selected), and the default UI raid panel. If the problem doesn't happen with a fresh profile, also attach your saved variables file and note which profile it does happen with.

I've been using grid since forever, basically, but am I just totally blonde and blind - is there no longer an option to have different raid sizes displayed based on difficulty? I dont want to see people in groups 5-8 when im in mythic and i cant seem to find that option anywhere.

Is there any way to make the mouseover effect look like how it used to be, with the highlights inside the target box or does Grid not have that function anymore?

You can assign it to the Health Bar Color indicator to make the health bar change color. The old separate highlight texture, however, is gone. Personally I use the Frame Border indicator to show mouseover.

Hi guys thanks for the amazing addon been using this for many years however recently (during legion) I've noticed the range of players being incorrect. (Inside dungeons) I know blizz recently changed the way players can use co-ord's, radars and the like to calculate player distance, but I feel asthough this has also affected grid (potentially).

I know it's probably out of your hands, (since I read on wowace forums about the range API and what not) but this is pretty much breaking the addon for me, as a healer it's incredibly frustrating to try and heal someone only for it not to register due to the target being out of range.

My action bar (Bartender) seems to still accurately track whether or not I can heal a target in range, but grid requires an extra 10-15 yards before they actually show as being out of range.

Reason why I'm posting this is blizz range API change seems to only affect grid, and not other addons, (like BT as mentioned) or maybe I am mistaken?

Edit: In BG's it seems to work as intended, the above applies just for dungeons only (as I've not been in a raid in legion yet) Is it something on my side causing this? Apologies if so.
